Niners Snag Boston at 33

0:00On April 24, the San Francisco 49ers sit at pick number 33 to kick off the second round of the 2026 draft after, trading back. They're open to moving again, but ESPN's Field Yates predicts they'll snag Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston right there. Boston brings serious production to a squad needing more weapons through the air. At 6 foot 3 and 210 pounds, he's got the size and red zone instincts to thrive in Kyle Shanahan's scheme. Fans are buzzing because he's been compared to big-bodied receivers, like Mike Evans, who some mocks have landing with the Niners earlier. And four college seasons, Boston hauled in 132 catches for 5,781 yards and 20 touchdowns. This would be a steal since he was often projected around pick 27 and now they get extra draft picks too. He'd slot into a loaded receiver group with guys like Christian Kirk, Ricky Purisol, and Jacob Cowling, but he's built to be that future top option.
